Default Return to racing - Opinion on options please

Guys,

After nearly 20 years since trying to build, setup and then race a topcat with 1700 SCRC's and SCE's I promised myself I would return to racing when the time was right.

Having started looking into a return some months ago, to say things have changed is an understatement !

I know that everyone has their own views on which packages are the best based on what they raced, so in order to try and not create a massive thread I wanted peoples views on the following products that I have almost decided on please:

Racing on mainly astro, grass and indoors:

Buggies
1/10th 2wd buggy - AE B4.2, Yok B-MAXMR or Durango DEX210

1/10th 4wd buggy - AE b44.2, Yok B-MAX4 2 world spec or Durango DEX410V3

Thoughts on both the above classes steers me to the durango's with geared diffs as they seem more reliable, not sure if they both come with geared though or whether there optional part upgrades ?

Electrics package:

- LRP Lipo, speedo and modified motor (Not sure what turn to start with)
- Dualsky Lipo, speedo and motor (Not sure what turn to start with)
- Reedy Lipo, Novak speedo and motor (Not sure what turn to start with)

Radio - Sanwa Gemini X 2.4 ghz with 451 receiver

Charger - LRP Pulsar touch competition charger

Steering servo:

Sanwa or Savox - not sure which one is the best

Really appreciate your views on these areas please.

Thanks
